The fact that no date appears on the title- 
page and that the preface is dated 1789 as in 
the 1st ed. probably accounts for the variation 
in the dates assigned to this ed. Each plate 
in the Dept. Agr. copy of the 2d ed., however, 
is plainly inscribed: "Published Sept.^ 1st, 
1805." The Eng. Cat. 1801-1836 gives Oct.1805 
as the publication date of the book. The Arn. 
Arb. and Mass. Hort. Soc. have both used [1805] 
in their printed catalogs. The Astor Library 
catalog has imprint: "London, s. a." The Brit. 
Mus. gives [1795?]. We have notes that the 2d 
ed. is also in the Boston Pub. Lib., the N. Y. 
Soc. Lib., and in the library'- of L. H. Bailey.
